Blond Ambition – the debut script for Hollander – picked up 48 mentions to top the list of the most-liked unproduced scripts, compiled from the suggestions of more than 250 film executives who each contributed up to ten of their favourite scripts that were written in, or associated with, 2016.

The Madonna biopic topped the scripts including This is Us's Dan Fogelman's "multigenerational love story" Life Itself, Tony Tost's Olympian rower biopic The Olympian and Liz Hannah's Pentagon Papers biopic The Post which all received 35 votes.

"It took this horrific moment of darkness to wake us the f**k up. It seems as though we all slipped into a false sense of comfort, that justice would prevail and that good would prevail in the end," Madonna said.

"Well, good did not win this election. But good will win in the end. So what today means is that we are far from the end. Today marks the beginning, the beginning of our story. The revolution starts here."
